“I wrote this song after my experience with Hurricane Katrina. I was living here in Ocean Springs. So I feel like it’s the right song to do in this sweet little house by Walter Anderson.”

Little Room sessions | Lisa Mills – Way Down South

The Little Room, moved to the museum from Shearwater Pottery, was the artist’s refuge on the mainland. It became a world apart, its walls covered with a synthesis of the natural world – the sea, woods, and creatures from the earth and sky. All were captured through Walter’s vision of the life cycle of a day, from morning to night. The Little Room was a generous gift of the Family of Walter Anderson.

The Little Room Sessions invites musicians to provide contemporary soundtracks to this timeless and contemplative space.
